St. John’s, ANTIGUA – The West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) wishes to advise that two of the 15-member squad selected to participate in the ICC World Twenty20 in India in March to April have withdrawn.
The players and reasons are:
1) On Tuesday February 9, Kieron Pollard withdrew from the squad citing a lack of sufficient progress in his rehabilitative work (injury sustained in December) and hence won’t be fit for tournament.
2) On Friday, February 12, Sunil Narine withdrew citing insufficient progress in the rehabilitative work on his bowling action. He is currently banned from bowling in International Cricket.
The selectors have today named Carlos Brathwaite to replace Pollard. A replacement for Narine has not yet been named.

"Only three players so far have signed contracts with the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) to represent the region in the Twenty20 (T20) World Cup, just days before a Valentines Day deadline runs out. WICB Chief Executive Michael Muirhead made the disclosure late Thursday evening without revealing the names of those who have put pen to paper before Sundays deadline."
Will there be more?
